Sierra is a 1951 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a loose, knee-length jacket with a checkered pattern and big pockets. The sleeves are long but slightly rolled up, and her hair is pulled back simply. The lines are quick and confident, with light shading to show folds in the fabric. The name "Sierra" is written in the corner, and the drawing looks like it was done fast—maybe for a fashion idea. The jacket style feels modern but relaxed. If you like this sketch, look up womenswear to see how clothing designs change over time.
Marie-Louise Carven (31 August 1909 – 8 June 2015), born Carmen de Tommaso, was a French fashion designer who founded the house of Carven in 1945.
